Hi and Thanks Al
I was using rect(sprite) but it failed to work. I was getting
only one dimension to scale and not the other. I guess the
problem is that this is dynically updated and the width and height are
automatically
entered into fields. I only have 2 dimensions to work with as well.
So I need to do this accordingly with 2 dimensions.
According to the error - it seems lingo can only deal with one dimension at
a time
That is why I was asking what that error message was signalling.
That is what I couldn't figure out OR read about.
Respectfully
Dave
